Went out Sunday morning to verify my drops for my new Savage 10 LRP 260 Remington. I had only been able to verify to 300 yards previous to this trip. Got set up to shoot the 500 meter target and noticed theses to jack rabbits eating in front of the target. Ranged them at 535 yards, dialed, and sent the first shot. Dead rabbit. The second one just froze, so I moved to the left and sent another. 2nd dead rabbit. Needless to say I was very pleased. Love it when live targets show up for drop validation.

You gotta love that! Nice shooting ... congrats on having a shooter ... Savage ROCKS!
 
Thanks Steve and Feenix. I only have 350 rds down the barrel and it was on out to 855 yrds. That gun and combo just flat out shoots.
